Wet Spaces: What They Are and Why They’re the Future of Bathroom Design

Modern bathroom remodeling is shifting toward smarter, more functional designs, and wet spaces are leading the way. At Bathroom Pros, our top-rated team of bath contractors transforms outdated bathrooms into sleek, spa-like environments using durable walk-in tubs, bathtubs, and showers built for safety and style. Here’s why wet space bathrooms are the future of bathroom design in New Jersey homes.

What Is a “Wet Space” in Bathroom Remodeling?

A wet space is a fully waterproofed area where the tub and shower are part of one open, barrier-free design. Instead of separating these features, the entire space is designed to get wet, making it easier to clean, more accessible, and visually more expansive.

Why Are Wet Spaces Taking Over Bathroom Design? 

1. Easy to Clean & Low Maintenance

• Bathroom Pros installs tubs and showers crafted from 100% nonporous acrylic materials that resist staining and buildup.

• Surfaces are mold- and mildew-resistant, reducing health risks and the need to clean with harsh chemicals.

• Just a quick wipe with warm water and mild soap keeps your bathroom looking brand new.

2. Designed for Accessibility

• Walk-in tubs feature low-entry thresholds, safety grab bars, and built-in seating.

• Open-concept walk-in showers offer easy entry for all ages and mobility levels, perfect for homeowners who want to age in place. 

3. Modern, Spa-Like Aesthetic

• Clean lines and open layouts visually enlarge your bathroom.

• Seamless surfaces and wall-to-wall waterproofing create a luxury bathroom feel without the luxury price tag.

4. Fully Customizable to Fit Your Style

• Choose from a wide variety of colors, textures, fixtures, and accessories, including acrylic wall surrounds in classic tile patterns..

• Add custom shelving, handheld showerheads, footrests, and more.

• They’re perfectly adaptable for both contemporary and classic bathroom designs.

5. Built to Last

• Acrylic tubs and showers are nonporous and resistant to chipping, cracking, peeling, and fading. 

• They’re engineered for daily use without wear and tear.
